Skyrim modding vs trainers - which do you prefer?

[Ferdinand]

This has probably been discussed to death but I am genuinely curious where people stand. I used to spend hours getting my Skyrim mod load order right, debugging CTDs, the whole thing. Then I discovered trainers on RG and honestly it scratches a similar itch with way less hassle. You still get to tweak the experience but without the compatibility headaches. Thoughts?

Both have their place I reckon. Mods can do things trainers cant like new quests and visual overhauls. But for quick gameplay tweaks like infinite carry weight or god mode for messing about, trainers are miles easier. I use both depending on my mood.

I am pretty new to all this so trainers were way more accessible for me. Tried modding once and broke my save within an hour. The trainers here just work which is exactly what I needed.
